.270 refers to the caliber of the rifle. It fires a center fire, bottle necked cartridge. The parent cartridge is the 30-06, which is necked down to fire a smaller diameter bullet- .270 instead of .308. A very versatile long range hunting cartridge with moderate recoil. I think every major rifle maker in the US has built guns in this caliber.

The .270 Winchester Rifle Cartridge was developed by Winchester Repeating Arms in 1923 and released in 1925 as the chamber for the Model 54 bolt action rifle. It was arguably the thinnest shooting cartridge of its time, rivaling the .300 Holland & Holland Magnum released in the same year.
